Review: as an adult alistair, this book made me cry.

i am not certain whether the message, which seems to be:

- people on earth will like you at sort of a remove if you do something spectacular or heroic, but really the people you belong to are space aliens -

would be good for child alistairs. then again, i am not certain a 6 year old who skipped too many grades (or the equivalent) would pick up the message. then again, i am not certain said 6 year old would not.

i am giving it 4 stars b/c it is at least a book about the abovenoted person, which is rare & b/c i think it is wellwritten. still, i would think, be wary.
